How to get Tableau Desktop Specialist Certified?
Few weeks back, I was the one who was searching the whole web with same question “How to get Tableau Desktop Specialist Certified?”
Let’s get into my preparation Journey :
👉STEP 1 : GET YOUR BASICS CLEAR
1.1 If you’re someone who is freshly introduced to tableau then I recommend following Abhishek Agarwal’s Youtube Playlist “Tableau Complete Tutorial | Tableau basic training for beginners” . He has explained each concept in tableau with short timed videos which will help you in getting introduced to different features and functionality present in tableau.

1.2 Another Youtube Content which gave me good grasp on building my concepts is Manideep Yakkala’s video which will give you more confidence on making concepts clear(really helpful).

1.3 Super Useful Video been made by Tableau itself in its eLearning Platform, you can leverage this platform if you’re a students in college or may buy it.

👉STEP 2 : BE THROUGH WITH DOCUMENTATION
I will be very blunt and honest here, if you’re through with the documentation (by heart) , I think you’re done there 😝
You already got the certification, no kidding!

👉STEP 3: BE CONFIDENT WITH SOFTWARE FUNCTIONALITY
Most of the questions that will be asked in exam will be easy for you if you know about the functionality of software.
Play around with each options on the menu, each button, understand the steps to perform a particular operation(sometime there are multiple ways to perform a single operation) eg. “Ways to sort a field” , “Different ways to format an axis,title etc.
👉STEP 4:PRACTICE, PRACTICE
Here are some sample questions links that will help you in gaining confidence about the type of question you may expect.
Follow ANJUL PATHAK’s Playlist , he has made 10 videos in this playlist which will help you in not only giving you clarity of the type of question but he will make your concepts clear, hence you’re now doing the revision.
Another source I found useful is a playlist by sqlbelle https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkZ_g9Y7eszJAm-ZbUT7jnldrl-uF-bWe
I will be making separate blog on the type of questions , important concepts, the question I got in my exam on my upcoming blogs. So, DON’T MISS OUT.
